Social housing contractor, Laidlaw Scott came to the rescue of a Gorbals playcentre by fitting a badly-needed brand new kitchen free of charge.

The kitchen at the PlaybarnYouth Centre was in desperate need of replacement, but the cost of a replacement was beyond the centre's means.

Laidlaw Scott decided to step in with the offer to fit a new kitchen, free of charge.

Chris Farmer, Commercial Manager of Laidlaw Scott said: "We were concerned to learn the youth club would be unable to afford the significant cost of a new kitchen. So that's where we stepped in.

"Laidlaw Scott routinely installs new kitchens on behalf of our housing association clients so we decided this club was a worthy recipient of a new kitchen, which we paid for and installed free of charge.

"The finished product looks splendid and is just what the club needed."
